ABSTRACT

The impact of multi-point nursing strategies drawing on a problem-solving clinical framework to examine adverse events associated with thyroid nodule resection was investigated. Patients (n = 98) who underwent thyroid nodule resection were divided into observation and control groups. Patients in the control group received conventional care, and patients in the observation group received a multi-point care strategy under a clinical problem-solving framework. The length of stay (p < .001), hospitalization cost (p < .001), nursing satisfaction scores (p < .001) of the observation group were longer or higher and statistically significant. The incidence of complications in the observation group (8.16%) was lower than that in the control group (22.45%). The incidence of adverse events in the observation group (2.04%) was lower than that in the control group (14.29%), and statistically significant (p < .05). The multi-point nursing strategy using a clinical problem-solving framework provided evidence that it shortened the length of stay, reduce hospitalization costs, improve psychological status, increase nursing satisfaction, and reduce complications and adverse events in patients undergoing thyroid nodule resection.
